Default Throttle Body Bolts

I just bought a LS3 intake and a FAST 92mm TB for my L92 heads. I have hunted in vendor catalogs everywhere for the throttle body bolts. Where can I buy them?

How about the size? I can check with hardware stores if I know the size needed?

No problem. Just be careful buying bolts for other high torque applications. The grade is marked on the end of every quality bolt.

Nearly all metric bolts sold will be grade 8.8 which is more than enough for 95% of the projects anyone will do. Not like you'll go to the hardware store for head/rod bolts

Quite true pocket. But have u seen any of those unstamped plain bolts? Those are scary. Seen them at big box store. Probably break those tightening a throttle body.

25mm length ones will not work with a DBW throttle body. I had to find some too & I think I went to Lowes & got the longest they had, Like 50mm or so.
